Skills:
I am a freelance editor/writer who has worked in the communications field for 20-plus years—since 1993, primarily on a contract basis from my home office in Calgary, Alberta, Canada . My experience combined with strong interpersonal skills and a desire for new challenges could make me the editor/writer you’re looking for. I’d consider myself to be a creative, resourceful, outgoing, organized and motivated individual—exactly the type of person you need for telecommuting work.

My projects over the years have varied in content and style and include writing, editing, proofreading, research, interviewing and desktop publication. I have written and edited procedure, policy, process, training and user manuals in both the oil and gas and software development industries. I also have experience editing master’s and PhD-level student papers to APA standards, developing online help files, and writing and editing newsletters, advertorials, advertising copy, fliers, brochures, quick reference cards, indexes and various corporate communications.
